Yes Gregg, now and in future. Xhtml is xml-based and not well-formed code stop the code representation. Passing from html to xml-based languages, validity is important for rendering of the code. Here Jez explain well.http://www.juicystudio.com/article/validity-accessibility.php Also assistive technologies browse wecontent following the DOM tree of the page: break the tree means break reading. ----- Messaggio originale ----- Da: "Gregg Vanderheiden"<gv@trace.wisc.edu> Inviato: 25/07/05 20.46.07 A: "w3c-wai-au@w3.org"<w3c-wai-au@w3.org> Oggetto: RE: Starter comments on WCAG 2.0 draft Did you mean it didn't work for everyone?

Roberto: If an authoring tool generates xhtml and it's no valid, when served as application/xhtml+xml some browsers end the page execution: this means no accessibility for all. [Messaggio troncato.
